Prevent redundant alias update caused by path alias language fallback.

Created on 13 February 2020, almost 5 years ago
Updated 29 August 2024, 3 months ago

Prerequisite:

Drupal 8.8.0 or higher.
Install English, French & German languages.
Install pathauto.
In pathauto settings, set "Update action" to "Create a new alias. Delete the old alias.".

Steps:

Create an English node with no alias. Let's say this node is node/1
Create French translation of node/1 with no alias
Manually add an alias '/test-node' to point at 'node/1' for all languages. i.e. the alias is created in 'und'
Create German translation of node/1 with new alias 'german-test-node'

Expectation:

No changes to und aias. i.e. '/test-node' should still be an alias to 'node.1' for und.
New german aias is created. i.e. 'german-test-node' becomes and alis for de language

Actual result:

und alias is updated to 'german-test-node'. Original one is deleted.
No new german aias is created.

    I had a look at the linked issues and tried some patches but they didn't stop this issue occurring. I also downloaded the latest version of this module and and it's still occurring. Where was this fixed? (Using core 10.2)

    Seeing as this is still occurring I re-opened and opened a MR. Added code in the AliasStorageHelper class rather than PathautoGenerator
